As much as I actually hate this game, I'll play it every now and again (for about 10 minutes until I get so pissed off with it). But I use the UMP45 a lot, which silence and red dot on it. I also have cold-blooded perk which means I'm pretty stealthy. I barely touch any other weapons in the game.

FN FAL: hard hitting, accurate, and makes a decent medium to long rate sniper rifle with the holo sight or the ACOG.

I don't have the game, but are you a sweat happy at getting his mitts on his old beloved (virtual) SLR once more?

Although your comment makes me wonder if there'd be any mileage to getting some SLRs out of reserve stock (if any did not go to Sierra Leone!), getting some optics on it and having the best shot per sect use it... like the theory goes with LSW now, but in 7.62...

Anyway, enough of me diverting this thread from gaming, you fellas crack on...

I've used every assault rifle from start to completion of the challenges. They're all good in their own right. The 3 round burst rifles are great for getting your hit ratio up, but I do like the Scar, the Tar-21, and the ACR for quick kills.

I also love the UGL attachment, with the red-dot sight. The Holographic sight is pointless, and the ACOG is only usefull on certain maps.

The Thumper is good (if not slow to fire). For secondary weapons I've only used launchers. I like the stinger. The Javelin is too slow to target, and it's only 1 shot.

the FAL is great, good for shooting through things rather than over or around them.

Like the MP5K for high rate of fire and small size.

The AUG and TAR-21 seem to have a better stopping power than the other 5.56 calibres but you can't find it with a grenade launcher, which sucks. The M16A4 is a happy hybrid but the burst fire can wind me up, as sometimes when you get confronted 2 on 1 and you shite yourself it's good to have the option of unloading a mag in the general direction.

SCAR everytime, decent stopping power and accuracy, used with scavenger perk to balance its low magazine capacity.

Also find using using either WA200 or M14 EBR with an ACOG scope on some maps is better than assault rifles. Low recoil and high stopping power and the best accuracy, a barsteward to use at first but great once you get the hang of it.

Bit off topic.....there is a callsign or title thing with daisies on it saying STD....you can only achieve it by stabbing a player wearing the title....made me chuckle when I learned that.

I'm still really enjoying a hand gripped + holographic enabled rpd. The rate of fire you can sustain is quite incredible. I've got into 3 v 1 firefights and come out on top simply with my ability to keep on going.

Primary: M4,UGL,Red dot (Red dot is much better than holagraphic IMOO as the dot is smaller and easyer to pinpoint onto a trarget at range, and the surrounding black square thing on the Holagraphic gives you tunnel vision, the red dot doesn't)

Once level 70 rolls around i use the ak-47 acog, a little secret is that with the acog on the ak-14 you can use steady aim pro and it actualy stops breathing moving the point of aim this is the only weapon that it works on apparently.

I just played online now, marathon pro + commando pro and I just go around stabbing people. It's ridiculous how I can leap like 30ft to stab a guy who is shooting me, but who cares, it's not about being fair online.

I was loving the ACR but I started this morning with the AUG LMG thing. it's brilliant I think. I had the grip and red dot on but got rid of grip to to use the scavenger perk which helps you sustain a kill streak longer
